Why I Will Never Buy Expensive Reading Glasses Again – What You Need To Know

Why I Will Never Buy Expensive Reading Glasses Again – What You Need To Know

If you are like me, you’ve made the mistake of buying expensive reading glasses at some point in your life only to regret it. The experience goes under the hard lessons learned category for sure. I’m glad to say I finally got smart and found the perfect place to buy my reading glasses at phenomenal prices.

I learned some hard and expensive lessons when it came to purchasing reading glasses. A few years ago, I went for my eye exam and found out I needed glasses. Needless to say, I felt disheartened after learning that because I had spent my whole life with 20/20 vision. Sitting in front of the computer screen for endless hours a day didn’t help, but either way, I knew I had to get some reading glasses and fast.

I needed to go pick out some frames to get the process started, and I remember walking over to the reading glasses display with the “designer” frames and lost my mind with all the bedazzle and designer charm! After spotting the pair I flipped out over – when I picked up the price tag I nearly fainted. Let’s say they were well over $500, and that was just for the frames!

For the curious, here’s what they look like. Pretty, sassy, and chic, but not worth that price point! And this is just one of the two pairs I bought that day. Needless to say, after the prescription lens went in, I ended up with a shameful bill.

I love splurging once in a while but, I also love saving money too! It is nice to splurge but why spend all that money on reading glasses when you can get the same quality for so much less? Right? It just makes sense!

With that said, I learned my lesson and discovered a way to buy my reading glasses at incredibly discounted prices. And the quality is exactly the same! They might not be loaded with Swarovski crystals, but who cares? The frame and lens quality is outstanding! The styles are so chic and the assortment is huge.

Style and quality are not mutually exclusive. The Getty is part of their Signature Collection that boasts optical quality materials and a premium polish. This pair of round readers has an acetate frame, spring hinges, and aspheric lenses that keep you comfortable and looking sharp all day long. I love the fit and the style is so chic and sassy too!

The Cabo reader is perfect for Multi-tasking! This fully magnified sun reader features UV protection and tinted lenses so you can read easily outdoors, all while having an extended, neck hanging frame to hang off your neck while you are indoors. Perfect for driving, boating, or just relaxing in the sun!

Premium quality and performance make The Rowling Multifocal Computer Reader so special! This retro round reader has an optical quality, polished acetate frame complete with rivet detail and spring hinges.

These computer lenses are multifocal with three different viewing areas, gradually adjusted in the lens. This computer reader has no lines, making it easy to move your eyes from the screen to page! The anti-reflective coating protects your eyes from glare and blue light. I love them! My eyes feel comfortable and rested and no more eye strain either!

Fantastic info! I have worn prescription glasses since I was 17. In my late 40’s I was up to 4 pair of glasses, (all with bifocals), regular, readers, computer only and sunglasses. Now I am going for trifocals so when I work above my head I can see! I did the contacts thing in my 20’s and quickly tired of them. I no longer have vision insurance and yes, it adds up quickly!

Going to pass this on to my girlfriend as she can really use this info and save herself a ton of money!

Hi Naomie! Always so good hearing from you. Wow, you have a long relationship with glasses I see. Trifocals? wow. They make sense for sure. I bet they are expensive. Yes, anything to do with glasses is always so expensive. I have a girlfriend with lots of vision issues and she pays over 1k all the time to get her glasses. Thanks so much for sharing this post. I love being able to save money and these glasses are just perfect in every way. Have a great upcoming weekend!
